One of the greatest songs ever,I don't say that lightly
I shed a tear when his voice blends in with his guitar
Jose doesn't make music, he makes magic.
Listening to the song was euphoric but playing his song on my guitar... no words best decribe that feeling. The rhythm is so magical...

Do you have any Good Guitar Tabs for this my Freind??? I love fingerpicking and this song is Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!
My life needed this.
Saw Jose Gonzalez live at Green Man last weekend and I now I can't stop thinking about this song. Such a talent, so beautiful. His hands, his voice, his lyrics! Long may you continue to make music for us all.
If I could live inside this song with a warm blanket and hot tea I would never leave!!!
It's way better than the record version. His voice sounds light but it's deep.
Guitar skills from another galaxy and the voice- oh my! Imagine Jose bedtime stories to his kids! Profound lyrics. Thank you Sony for using his music back in the early 2000s for Sony Bravia TV ads- that's how I stumbled upon most cool music through ad music!
My hair grows back. My eyes can see again. My homework is all done. My life is complete... Thank you Mr Gonzalez 😍
That build up right before 3:05 that leads into the heavy part gives me freaking chills! Sounds so damn heavy just for a dude playing guitar and tapping his foot. He always has a driving rythem is his songs. I play bass and that's huge for me. He's incredible.

Its just one of those perfect songs...its so hard to be a perfect song, and this is one of them..
So many years have passed since I've been listening to this song; and ever got tired of it
He's right. What will be remembered of us and our work, our lives 100 years from now? The beauty and wonder is that we are here...now.

Hopefully Jose will be remembered 100 years from now. Or at least his music.
This is simply brilliant.
I am very slow to say that something is amazing, but this is surely one of the best things I have heard in my entire life. There are no words to describe something that is out of our dimensions ...
A profound and hauntingly beautiful song about the meaninglessness of life. Puts things into perspective for me... "Who cares in a hundred years from now, Who'll remember all the players, Who'll remember all the clowns.... So what does this really mean, When it all comes down, cycling trivialities..."

I replayed this song like 100x today lol
Some people play music, some people are music, lyrics and melody just make my soul feel better
The best song of Jose.

Agreed.
Such a moving performance.
Gold in music form
Reading the comment and more than few people saying that it’s a sad song.. it doesn’t feel sad to me, it feels to me like an acceptance of the cyclic nature and the patterns we get stuck in and then a fresh look, “so what’s it gonna be?”. I get there are a twinges of sadness in the lyrics, but it doesn’t feel depressing or hopeless to me.
Jose on the meaning "I knew I wanted to sing about when you get caught in trivialities and you can’t see past your own horizon, and basically how you can make things seem bigger and more difficult than they really are. Almost sentimental, the lyrics …I mean its more of an observation, and also not…Almost like complaining about yourself and how you can get stuck in small things, and how you want to change that."
Mad love for his music
Such brilliant music! Thank you.
4:00 that's when the tears breakthrough. Otherworldly beauty
Καταπληκτικός καλλιτέχνης,αυτή η κιθάρα... Μπράβο!
wow.. such a beautiful song! Thank you for that
Como ciclo viajero quiero decir que RE-AMO este tema! 😍
Maravilhoso, cara! Que música!
what a lovely lovely song
Idk why this song makes me cry so much
His music is magic 💛
thank you und thank you KEXP

You had me at your first note, you are great José González!

New Amsterdam brought me here ❤️
what a beautiful piece of art.
3:04 on makes every hair on my body stand straight up. Absolutely incredible! His music has literally healed my mental state more than a few times.
Wow! I love this song.
One of the few times where I prefer the live version over the studio recording.
I'm seeing him in St Louis soon. Can't freaking wait!

Too blind to know your best Hurrying through the forks without regrets Different now, every step feels like a mile All the lights seem to flash and pass you by So how?s it gonna be When it all comes down, cycling trivialities But don't know which way to turn Every trifle becoming big concerns All this time you were chasing dreams Without knowing what you wanted them to mean So how's it gonna be When it all comes down, cycling trivialities So how's it gonna be When it all comes down, cycling trivialities Who cares in a hundred years from now All your small steps, all your shitty clouds Who cares in a hundred years from now Who'll remember all the players Who'll remember all the clowns So how's it gonna be When it all comes down, cycling trivialities So what does this really mean When it all comes down, cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities

Really like when he starts hitting that low (top) string hard. Really adds intensity.

Klaus Chamberlain I realized later on that he was hitting multiple strings. He’s tuned to cgcgad I believe. I got the tabs and they showed him hitting the low C and G strings simultaneously.

This song effected me so strongly that I felt I had to do a version of it. It's an alternate version with a lot of layers. It's the latest video in my channel. Please check it out if Josés song has moved you.
any other recommendation to similar this awesome song?

Maybe someone who has trouble acknowledging the pain they’re in.
Sublime, mais quand j'essaie de la jouer avec le capo en 2e ou en 4e frette ça sonne hyper faux. J'ai vérifié mon accordage (classique Mi La Ré Sol Si Mi) normalement c'est ok. Faut-il accorder sa guitare autrement ?
The interesting thing about José is he actually comes from another planet, where they teach children to fingerpick before they're allowed to walk. Also, this is possibly one of the greatest songs ever written.

I can play a basic version now, but am far from how he plays it.. Drop D with your G up to an A. The finger picking is pretty easy for the first main parts, but that last bit is tricky. Use guitar tab app it has it correct. You can get a basic version going with that, but it’ll take effort and work to get all the parts how he does
